I am trying to map the following properties from Solidworks to Windchill attributes so as to display it under details page once user checkin the CAD document:

1. Override mass (yes or no) - is the mass displayed is the calculated or overridden.

2. XYZ coordinates of center of gravity.

3. Override center of gravity (Yes or No) - is the displayed coordinates of COG are calculated one or overridden.

Can anyone let me know is it possible to do so or not? If so they how to achieve this.

Regards,

Irfan

In Solidworks you can override the mass properties and the origin. however this is not recommended.

Is there a reason you are doing this? This information should transfer to any Data management system.

Hi Allen,

If we override the mass properties in Solidworks say 'Center Of Mass', then is there a way that the attribute in windchill says that the 'Center Of Mass' property is overrided?

Thanks,

Irfan
